Product Description
H-beam is a new type of steel for economic construction. Method for Representation of Hot - Rolled H - Section Steel. H-beam is divided into wide flange H-beam (HK), narrow flange H-shaped steel (HZ) and H-shaped steel pile (HU) three categories.
The height of H × width B × web thickness t1 × wing thickness t2, such as the H-beam Q235B, SS400 200 × 200 × 8 × 12 200mm wide and 200mm wide web thickness of 8mm, wing thickness of 12mm Wide flange H-beam grades Q235BQ, 345B or SS400.

1.What is H-beam steel?
An h-beam is a steel structure that looks like its name suggests it should look: It's a steel beam shaped like a capital H. This structural beam made from rolled steel provides an impressive amount of strength when used in commercial building projects. Most of today's steel buildings use H-beams.
2.Which is stronger, H or I-beam?
To short, the main difference between an H-beam and an I-beam is that the web of an H-beam is much thicker than that of an I-beam. A thicker web means a stronger beam, which allows for more load-bearing capacity. This means that for the same amount of structural support, you can use fewer H beams than I beams.
3.What grade of steel is used in H beams?
Steel h-pile beams and steel wide flange beams come in eight ASTM standards, including A36, A572-Grade 50, A588, A690, A709, A913-Grade 50, A913-Grade 65, and A992. ASTM A36 mainly applies to carbon structural steel.
4.What is type H steel?
"H" grades are high carbon stainless steel grades, having improved strength at high temperatures - generally above 500°C. These high carbon grades have high short-term and long-term creep strength. They are usually produced in the form of pipe and plate.
5.Which is more expensive, H-beam or I-beam?
Whilst H beams are generally more expensive than I beams, they can also be more cost-effective as they can hold larger loads and cover longer spans.
